Which fuse is for the cigarette lighter in the 2013 ix35?
2 Answers
The fuse for the Hyundai ix35 cigarette lighter is located in the fuse box under the dashboard. When replacing it, make sure to use a fuse with the same rated current as specified on the fuse box cover. Do not use a fuse with a higher current rating than specified. The car cigarette lighter has a limited power capacity. If you connect an appliance with too high power or too many devices, it may cause the fuse to blow or damage the car's electrical circuit. Here is some related information about the Hyundai ix35: 1. Introduction: The Hyundai ix35 is an SUV model. It was introduced as the successor to the Tucson and officially launched in China in 2010. Beijing Hyundai stated that the domestic version of the ix35 would no longer use the name "Tucson." 2. Powertrain: The ix35 offers two engine options: a 2.0L and a 2.4L. Both engines are the new Theta II dual CVVT all-aluminum four-cylinder gasoline engines, and there is no visible difference between the two. The 2.0L engine has a maximum output of 120kW (163 horsepower) at 6200rpm and a maximum torque of 194Nm at 4600rpm. The 2.4L engine delivers a maximum output of 128kW (174 horsepower) at 6000rpm and a maximum torque of 226Nm at 4000rpm. These engine specifications are considered top-tier in their respective categories.
I remember when I drove a 2013 Hyundai ix35 before, I encountered a situation where the cigarette lighter wasn't working. The fuse is usually hidden in the car's fuse box, specifically located behind a small panel under the steering wheel. Based on my experience, it's typically labeled around F15 or F20, but it's best to check the manual to confirm, as it may vary depending on the configuration. The fuse often blows because you use the cigarette lighter socket for charging, such as plugging in too many USB devices causing overload, and the amperage is mostly 10A or 15A. You can check it yourself: turn off the engine, open the panel, and use a test light or visually inspect whether the fuse is blown; if it's blown, just buy a new one to replace it. Remember not to use a fuse with too high a current, otherwise, it could damage the circuit and be more dangerous. To prevent problems, try not to charge multiple devices simultaneously during normal use—safety first. After replacement, test whether the cigarette lighter function is restored.
